Johana 4
1 Afarisai nĩmaiguire atĩ Jesũ nĩagĩĩaga na arutwo aingĩ gũkĩra Johana na akamabatithia,
When therefore Jesus knew that the Pharisees had heard that Jesus made and baptized more disciples than John,
2 o na gũtuĩka, ti Jesũ wabatithanagia, no nĩ arutwo ake.
(though Jesus himself did not baptize, but his disciples, )
3 Hĩndĩ ĩrĩa Mwathani aamenyire ũhoro ũcio, akiuma Judea na agĩcooka Galili o rĩngĩ.
he left Judaea, and went again to Galilee.
4 Na rĩrĩ, no nginya angĩatuĩkanĩirie bũrũri wa Samaria.
And he must necessarily pass through Samaria.
5 Nĩ ũndũ ũcio, agĩkinya itũũra rĩarĩ Samaria rĩetagwo Sukaru, hakuhĩ na gĩthaka kĩrĩa Jakubu aaheete mũriũ Jusufu.
He cometh therefore to a city of Samaria, called Sychar, near the piece of land which Jacob gave to his son Joseph.
6 Nakĩo gĩthima kĩa Jakubu nĩkuo kĩarĩ, nake Jesũ, tondũ wa kũnoga nĩ rũgendo, agĩikara thĩ hau gĩthima-inĩ. Na kwarĩ ta thaa thita.
And Jacob's well was there. Jesus therefore, being wearied with the journey, was sitting thus by the well. It was about the sixth hour.
7 Na rĩrĩa mũtumia ũmwe Mũsamaria okire gũtaha maaĩ-rĩ, Jesũ akĩmũũria atĩrĩ, “No ũũhe maaĩ ma kũnyua?”
There cometh a woman of Samaria to draw water. Jesus saith to her, Give me to drink.
8 (Hĩndĩ ĩyo arutwo ake nĩmathiĩte kũgũra irio itũũra-inĩ.)
For his disciples had gone away into the city to buy food.
9 Nake mũtumia ũcio Mũsamaria akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Wee ũrĩ Mũyahudi na niĩ ndĩ mũtumia Mũsamaria. Ũngĩkĩĩhooya gĩa kũnyua atĩa?” (Nĩgũkorwo Ayahudi matirĩ ngwatanĩro na Asamaria.)
The Samaritan woman saith to him, How is it that thou, who art a Jew, askest drink of me, who am a Samaritan woman? For Jews have no dealings with Samaritans.
10 Nake Jesũ akĩmũcookeria atĩrĩ, “Korwo nĩũũĩ kĩheo kĩa Ngai na ũkamenya nũũ ũrakũhooya maaĩ ma kũnyua, wee nĩwe ũngĩamũhooya nake nĩangĩakũhe maaĩ ma muoyo.”
Jesus answered and said to her, If thou hadst known the gift of God, and who it is that saith to thee, Give me to drink, thou wouldst have asked of him, and he would have given thee living water.
11 Nake mũtumia ũcio akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Mũthuuri ũyũ, ndũrĩ na kĩndũ gĩa gũtaha maaĩ nakĩo, na gĩthima gĩkĩ nĩ kĩriku. Ũngĩkĩruta kũ maaĩ macio ma muoyo?
The woman saith to him, Sir, thou hast nothing to draw with, and the well is deep. Whence hast thou the living water?
12 Anga ũkĩrĩ mũnene gũkĩra ithe witũ Jakubu ũrĩa watũheire gĩthima gĩkĩ, na we mwene aatũũrĩte anyuuaga maaĩ kuuma kĩo o hamwe na ariũ ake na ndũũru ciake cia mbũri na cia ngʼombe?”
Art thou greater than our father Jacob, who gave us the well, and drank thereof himself, and his sons, and his cattle?
13 Nake Jesũ akĩmũcookeria atĩrĩ, “Mũndũ o wothe ũnyuuaga maaĩ maya nĩanyootaga rĩngĩ,
Jesus answered and said to her, Every one that drinketh of this water, will thirst again;
15 Nake mũtumia ũcio akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Mũthuuri ũyũ, he maaĩ macio nĩguo ndikananyoote rĩngĩ, na ndige gũũkaga haha gũtaha maaĩ.”
The woman saith to him, Sir, give me this water, that I may not thirst, nor come hither to draw.
16 Nake akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Thiĩ wĩte mũthuuriguo mũũke nake.”
He saith to her, Go, call thy husband, and come hither.
17 Nake mũtumia ũcio akĩmũcookeria atĩrĩ, “Niĩ ndirĩ na mũthuuri.” Nake Jesũ akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Nĩ waria ma rĩrĩa woiga atĩ ndũrĩ na mũthuuri.
The woman answered, I have no husband. Jesus saith to her, Thou saidst well, that thou hast no husband.
18 Ũhoro wa ma nĩ atĩ ũkoretwo ũrĩ na athuuri atano, na mũndũ mũrũme ũrĩa ũrĩ nake rĩu ti mũthuuriguo. Ũguo woiga nĩ ũhoro wa ma.”
For thou hast had five husbands; and he whom thou now hast is not thy husband; in this thou hast spoken truly.
19 Nake mũtumia ũcio akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Mũthuuri ũyũ, nĩndĩrona atĩ wee ũrĩ mũnabii.
The woman saith to him, Sir, I perceive that thou art a prophet.
20 Maithe maitũ maahooyagĩra Ngai kĩrĩma-inĩ gĩkĩ, no inyuĩ Ayahudi muugaga atĩ Jerusalemu nokuo kũndũ kũrĩa twagĩrĩirwo nĩkũhooyagĩra Ngai.”
Our fathers worshipped on this mountain; and ye say, that in Jerusalem is the place where men ought to worship.
21 Nake Jesũ akiuga atĩrĩ, “Mũtumia ũyũ, njĩtĩkia, kũrĩ ihinda rĩroka rĩrĩa mũtakaahooyagĩra Baba kĩrĩma-inĩ gĩkĩ o na kana Jerusalemu.
Jesus saith to her, Believe me, woman, the hour is coming, when ye shall neither on this mountain, nor in Jerusalem, worship the Father.
22 Inyuĩ Asamaria mũhooyaga kĩrĩa mũtooĩ; no ithuĩ tũhooyaga kĩrĩa tũũĩ, nĩgũkorwo ũhonokio uumĩte kũrĩ Ayahudi.
Ye worship that which ye know not; we worship that which we know; for salvation is from the Jews.
23 No ihinda nĩrĩroka na rĩu nĩrĩkinyu, rĩrĩa arĩa mahooyaga na ma makaahooyaga Baba na roho, na mamũhooyage na ma, nĩgũkorwo nĩ andũ ta acio Baba acaragia a kũmũhooyaga.
But the hour is coming, and now is, when the true worshippers will worship the Father in spirit and in truth; for such worshippers the Father seeketh.
24 Ngai nĩ roho, nao arĩa mamũhooyaga no nginya mamũhooyage na roho, na mamũhooyage na ma.”
God is a spirit; and they who worship must worship in spirit and in truth.
25 Nake mũtumia ũcio akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Nĩnjũũĩ atĩ Mesia” (ũrĩa wĩtagwo Kristũ) “nĩarooka. Hĩndĩ ĩrĩa agooka nĩagatũtaarĩria maũndũ mothe.”
The woman saith to him, I know that Messiah cometh (who is called Christ); when he hath come, he will tell us all things.
26 Nake Jesũ akiuga atĩrĩ, “Niĩ ndĩrakwarĩria nĩ niĩ we.”
Jesus saith to her, I who speak to thee am he.
27 O ihinda-inĩ rĩu arutwo ake magĩũka, na makĩgega maakora akĩaranĩria na mũtumia. No gũtirĩ o na ũmwe woririe atĩrĩ, “Nĩ kĩĩ ũrenda?” kana akĩũria, “Ũraaranĩria nake nĩkĩ?”
And upon this his disciples came, and marveled that he was talking with a woman. Yet no one said, What dost thou seek? or, Why dost thou talk with her?
28 O hĩndĩ ĩyo mũtumia ũcio agĩtiga ndigithũ yake ya maaĩ, agĩcooka itũũra-inĩ, akĩĩra andũ atĩrĩ,
The woman then left her water-pot, and went away into the city, and saith to the men,
29 “Ũkai, mũkone mũndũ wanjĩĩra maũndũ marĩa mothe ndaaneka. Ũcio no akorwo nĩwe Kristũ?”
Come, see a man who told me all things which I have done. Is this the Christ?
30 Nao makiuma kũu itũũra-inĩ, magĩthiĩ harĩa Jesũ aarĩ.
They went out of the city, and came to him.
31 Mũira wa makinye, arutwo ake makĩmũringĩrĩria makĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Rabii, rĩa irio.”
In the mean while the disciples asked him, saying, Rabbi, eat.
32 Nowe akĩmeera atĩrĩ, “Ndĩ na irio cia kũrĩa, iria mũtarĩ ũndũ wacio mũũĩ.”
But he said to them, I have food to eat that ye know not of.
33 Nao arutwo ake makĩũrania atĩrĩ, “Kaĩ hihi harĩ mũndũ ũmũreheire irio?”
The disciples therefore said to one another, Hath any one brought him anything to eat?
34 Nake Jesũ akiuga atĩrĩ, “Irio ciakwa nĩ gwĩka wendi wa ũrĩa wandũmire na kũrĩĩkia wĩra wake.
Jesus saith to them, My food is to do the will of him that sent me, and to finish his work.
35 Githĩ mũtiugaga atĩ, ‘Nĩ mĩeri ĩna ĩtigarĩte magetha makinye’? Ngũmwĩra atĩrĩ, hingũrai maitho manyu muone mĩgũnda! Magetha nĩmakinyu.
Do ye not say, There are yet four months, and the harvest cometh? Lo! I say to you, lift up your eyes, and look on the fields, that they are white for harvest.
36 O na rĩu mũgethi nĩagĩĩaga na mũcaara wake, o na nĩagethaga magetha ma muoyo wa tene na tene, nĩgeetha mũhaandi na mũgethi makenanĩre hamwe. (aiōnios g166)
Already is the reaper receiving wages, and gathering fruit unto everlasting life; that both the sower and the reaper may rejoice together. (aiōnios g166)
37 Amu nĩ ũhoro wa ma ũrĩa uugaga atĩ, ‘Ũmwe ahaandaga, nake ũngĩ akagetha.’
And herein is fulfilled the true saying, One soweth, and another reapeth.
38 Niĩ ndaamũtũmire mũkagethe kĩrĩa mũtarutĩire wĩra. Angĩ nĩo marutĩte wĩra mũritũ, na inyuĩ mũkagetha uumithio wa wĩra wao.”
I have sent you to reap that whereon ye have not labored. Others have labored, and ye have entered into their labor.
39 Nao Asamaria aingĩ kuuma itũũra rĩu makĩmwĩtĩkia nĩ ũndũ wa ũira wa mũtumia ũcio, tondũ nĩameerire atĩrĩ, “Nĩanjĩĩrire maũndũ marĩa mothe ndaneeka.”
And many of the Samaritans of that city believed in him because of the words of the woman, who testified, He told me all things which I have done.
40 Nĩ ũndũ ũcio, hĩndĩ ĩrĩa Asamaria mokire kũrĩ Jesũ, makĩmũringĩrĩria aikaranie nao, nake agĩikara mĩthenya ĩĩrĩ.
When therefore the Samaritans came to him, they besought him to remain with them; and he remained there two days.
41 Na tondũ wa ciugo ciake, andũ angĩ aingĩ magĩĩtĩkia.
And many more believed on account of his word;
42 Magĩkĩĩra mũtumia ũcio atĩrĩ, “Ithuĩ tũtiretĩkia no ũndũ wa ũrĩa ũratwĩrire; rĩu nĩtwĩiguĩrĩire ithuĩ ene na tũkamenya atĩ mũndũ ũyũ ti-itherũ nĩwe Mũhonokia wa kĩrĩndĩ.”
and said to the woman, No longer do we believe on account of what thou hast told us; for we have ourselves heard him, and know that this is in truth the Saviour of the world.
43 Thuutha wa mĩthenya ĩyo ĩĩrĩ, akiumagara agĩthiĩ Galili.
And after the two days he went from that place into Galilee.
44 (Amu Jesũ we mwene nĩoigĩte atĩ mũnabii ndatĩĩagwo bũrũri-inĩ wake mwene.)
For Jesus himself testified, that a prophet hath no honor in his own country.
45 Rĩrĩa aakinyire Galili, andũ a Galili makĩmũnyiita ũgeni. Nĩmonete ũrĩa wothe ekĩte Jerusalemu hĩndĩ ya Gĩathĩ gĩa Bathaka, nĩgũkorwo o nao maarĩ kuo.
When therefore he came into Galilee, the Galilaeans received him, having seen all that he did in Jerusalem at the feast; for they also went to the feast.
46 O rĩngĩ agĩceera Kana ya Galili, kũrĩa aagarũrĩte maaĩ magatuĩka ndibei. Na kũu Kaperinaumu nĩ kwarĩ na mũndũ ũmwe mũnene warĩ na mũriũ mũrũaru.
So he came again into Cana of Galilee, where he made the water wine. And there was a certain nobleman, whose son was sick, at Capernaum.
47 Rĩrĩa mũndũ ũcio aaiguire atĩ Jesũ nĩoimĩte Judea agooka Galili, agĩthiĩ kũrĩ we, akĩmũthaitha athiĩ akahonie mũriũ, ũrĩa warĩ hakuhĩ gũkua.
He, having heard that Jesus had come out of Judaea into Galilee, went to him, and asked him to go down and heal his son; for he was at the point of death.
48 Jesũ akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Inyuĩ mũtangĩona ciama na morirũ, mũtingĩtĩkia.”
Then Jesus said to him, Unless ye see signs and wonders, ye will not believe.
49 Nake mũnene ũcio akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Mũthuuri ũyũ, nĩtũikũrũke mwana wakwa atanakua.”
The nobleman saith to him, Sir, come down before my child die.
50 Nake Jesũ akĩmũcookeria atĩrĩ, “Inũka. Mũrũguo nĩekũhona.” Mũndũ ũcio agĩĩtĩkia ũguo Jesũ aamwĩrire, na akĩinũka.
Jesus saith to him, Go; thy son liveth. The man believed the word that Jesus spoke to him, and went away.
51 Naarĩ njĩra akĩinũka, ndungata ciake ikĩmũtũnga na ndũmĩrĩri atĩ mũrũwe arĩ o muoyo.
And as he was now going down, the servants met him, and brought word that his child was living.
52 Rĩrĩa aamooririe nĩ ta thaa ciigana mũriũ aambĩrĩirie kũigua wega, makĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Ira thaa mũgwanja nĩguo araahonire.”
Then he inquired of them the hour when he began to mend. And they said to him, Yesterday at the seventh hour the fever left him.
53 Nake ithe akĩmenya atĩ thaa icio nocio Jesũ aramwĩrĩte atĩrĩ, “Mũrũguo nĩekũhona.” Nĩ ũndũ ũcio we na nyũmba yake yothe magĩĩtĩkia.
So the father knew that it was in the same hour in which Jesus said to him, Thy son is living. And he himself believed, and his whole house.
54 Gĩkĩ nĩkĩo kĩarĩ kĩama gĩa keerĩ kĩrĩa Jesũ aaringire kũu Galili, oimĩte Judea.
This again, a second sign, Jesus wrought, when he had come out of Judaea into Galilee.
